RECONCILE CONFIGURATION FILE CHANGES

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The installer has detected local changes in the following configuration

files:

    /etc/cb/integrations/event-forwarder/cb-event-forwarder.conf

    /etc/cb/nginx/conf.d/includes/cb.server.sensor

To ensure that the local changes are not lost, the installer placed new

configuration files, with a .rpmnew extension, next to the modified

configuration files listed above.

Please, manually reconcile the existing configuration files with the new

ones and then remove the new configuration files with the .rpmnew extensions.

When all the changes are reconciled, re-run cbupgrade to complete the

upgrade.

Hello @afrantz, what content are you referring to being on box.com?  The PDF attached is from our community which is not box.com.

[afrantz]

It looks like maybe the PDF reader/viewer is hosted on Box? When I try the direct download link I get a network error as well.
